MySQL Notifier Plug-in

The MySQL plug-in is displayed when you choose MySQL in the Notifier Kind pop-up menu in the Notifier Info pane.

This plug-in will connect to a specified MySQL database and perform a query, e.g. to add an entry to a database to log a failure.

Server

Enter a server domain name.

Port

Enter a port to connect on.

Socket

Enter the socket to use, for example MySQL.sock.

Database

Enter a database name. On a shared web-based server, the database name may be prefixed with your web host account name.

Insert variable

Variables are markers in the text that are replaced by another value when a filter, notifier or service is used. Use this menu to choose from the available variables. When one is chosen, it is inserted at the insertion point, or replaces the selected text. Refer to the Notifier Variables page for descriptions of the available variables.

Query

Enter a query to perform, for example INSERT INTO table (col1) VALUES ("Message"). You can use the Insert Variable drop-down menu to insert test-specific values.

Use the Test's Security settings

Select this to use the Username and Password specified in the Service page of the Test Info pane, if appropriate.

Use these security settings

If the database this notifier is accessing needs different authentication (as is quite likely), choose this option, and enter the Username and Password in the adjacent fields.
